I actually agree with a lot of what you say there, but in major aspects of the game - defence, enthusiasm, attacking structure, cutting edge, organisation I thought we were much better than Wakey today, hence the scoreline.

You completely hammered us in these departments our attacking line was consistantly woeful. One up rugby at 12 men is unforgivable really. Never got going.

Poor goal kicking? Thought Richards was pretty good today, missed maybe 1 he should have got but also kicked some belters.
Tomkins and O'Loughlin clearly tired? Well Lock went off injured after 10 minutes after finishing off a length of the field move. Both Sam and Joel were excellent.
I think you had very few chances due to fantastic defence and as for filed position you had a few spells but generally Wigan were totally dominant due to your errors.
If you class finishing as scoring lots of points I agree, other than that I am not sure we were at the same game.
Trinity were poor in defence, offered nothing in attack, riddled with basic errors and were technically and physically way way off the pace of the Wigan team on the day.

| Lol, I saw it differently, I thought we defended ok and all the chances Wigan had they took. I thought both sides were equally poor but Wigan had conviction once half gaps appeared. It was that simple. We really didn't struggle to get up to the other end of the field but once there the knock-ons came. We gave Wigan a lot of cheap ball but hey gave us even cheaper ball with perpetual penalties.
I didn't see anything in our performance today to give me heart but I don't think Wigan were as hot as some are making out.
Tomkins and O'Loughlin were tired, the former getting frustrated with his performance near the end and taking it out on Obst and the latter was cream crackered after his early break, looked like thigh strain.

| A bit dissapointed it wasnt a closer game today but theres no need for people/idiots to wish Wakey go bust or get thrown out SL etc. We need clubs growing and improving to make the league better.
Good luck for the rest of the season.

If our defence had been as bad as our general play we would have lost 6-80 today. Trust me I'm not happy.

My heart didn't turn up (like the players) so I guess I was only 99% present!

| Lot of fans slagging each other off tonight. Wigan travelled in good number and anyone who makes the trip gets my nod. Wigan were good today and good luck for the rest of the season. You'll win the league leaders shield, although I fancy Wire fir the whole thing.
